$400K isn't THAT outrageous for a car like this one but then again, in comparison to a TA2 for example, it's quite expensive. Losing 16% or thereabouts after a couple of races isn't all that unusual for a race car either, particularly one that is a bit of an "orphan" in terms of where it races.

Plenty of options for cars that can be bought for less and raced internationally, if that's what a purchaser wants to do (do MARC cars still do some races in Europe?).
TA2 races here, USA, Sweden, few other places
GT3 and GT4 of course although the GT3 cars aren't cheap
TCR
LMP3
F4
Etc etc
